RMIT ARCHITECTURE ELECTIVE POSTERS FOR BACHELOR AND MASTERS STUDENTS by RMIT Architecture

RMIT ARCHITECTURE MASTER AND BACHELOR OF ARCHITECTURE DESIGN ELECTIVE BALLOTING POSTERS SEMESTER 2 2019

RMIT INTENSIVE ELECTIVE SEMESTER 2_2019 HIGH RESOLUTION ARCHITECTURE: DISRUPTED/DISTRIBUTED vol. 2 DATES: 22 JULY - 2 AUGUST 1-5PM Dr Alisa Andrasek This elective will build up on a prior research looking at the future of architectural design and construction, through critically engaging with new developments in technology such as artificial intelligence, big data, robotics, machine learning and adaptive algorithms. The synthesis of these elements is aimed to disrupt outdated notions of established rigid typologies of architecture and introduce logics of distributed and adaptive systems within complex host environments. Previously develop structural system consists of only one type of component but it can produce virtually infinite number of structural variations and spatial effects. Its character resonates complex systems, such as material intricacy found in nature, or man-made such as big city complexity. It has interesting organizational properties that could be applied to various orders of scale, from the scale of architectural details to the scale of urban distributed systems. The system can also act as an interactive playground for physical coding, or intuitive learning of how to code through something tangible and material. Augmented reality (AR) with hololens is used for assembly, following the data field that was pre-simulated and improvising along the way. Within the same system, human side of the equation is simple, playful and intuitive, relying on human creativity, while the non-human is leading towards development of big data and Ai based learning embedded into the system. It forecasts convergence of human and non-human cognition in design and construction of high resolution structures. It is also an opportunity to explore an upcoming co-evolution of human and non-human cognition. We see neuro science and computer science working with similar concepts. Students will be developing a design proposal for a pavilion/event space for Burning Man in Black Rock Desert of Nevada. Through the virtual component of this design the visitor could experience a larger architectural sequence with hololens while walking through this structure. Possible pavilion scale structure might be constructed as a result of this study _ TBC. This elective will run as an intensive 2 week class in the first part of the semester. Prior computational and code skills are highly advantageous for this class. TECHNOLOGIES: Ai/AR/generative algorithms/CNC fabrication

cataloguing What would a virtual exhibition of 3D scanned objects look like? How might we read these artefacts in ways we cannot in a physical exhibition? How can we fabricate physical copies of these artefacts? What can be in the copy that is not in the original?

This is a research and design elective. Our core task is developing the process from 3D scanning to fabrication. We will investigate novel approaches to manipulating scan data and it’s implications for design. You will develop skills in 3D scanning, processing and manipulating point clouds and meshes and fabrication, including 3D printing. Across the university, RMIT has a range of digital recording, fabrication and virtual experience technologies that we are interested in exploring. We will produce a collective catalogue of 3D scans of spaces and objects from around Melbourne. From this catalogue, you will design virtual and physical exhibitions. Our final project will involve a proposal for a digital counterpart to the end of semester exhibition on Level 2 of the Design Hub. Deliverables An individual folio A virtual exhibition design (catalogue, imagery) A fabricated object, developed from a scan Prerequisites You should be prepared to make models.

You will have an opportunity to nominate your own sites and objects to record with the FARO scanner. Please note as some sites can only be accessed with an invitation, visits may be coordinated out of our nominated time slot. You will not be required to attend all scanning sessions. any queries: emily.davies@rmit.edu.au

“Any object is a complex and irreducible event; like the moon, one face of the tool is darkened in the silence of its orbit, while another face illuminates and compels us with dazzling surface-effects. No object, however banal, is just the empty representative of a standing reserve of calculable presence. However naive an object might seem, it still makes its incisions into being, exploding with power at a level always escaping our view.” Graham Harman, Towards Speculative Realism

[ THE AGE-ADAPTIVE CITY© ] IAN NAZARETH SEMESTER 2 2019

Eco-Urban Practices introduces you to the key skills, methods and practices of the urban design professional from a multidisciplinary perspective, and with a focus on the relationship between urban design and global pressures. This semester our interest is on the reciprocity between urbanisation and an ageing demographic. By 2020, over 50% of people aged 60 and over will live in an urban environment , and by 2050 2.1 billion people (or 21.5% of the population) will be aged over 60, outnumbering those 15 and under. The economic footprint of the age care sector in Australia alone was $13.5 billion in 2014-15. (Deloitte). By 2050 India, China and the United States, will each have over 100 million people aged over 60. Despite the immense dimension of this forecast, there has been scarce critical reflection or policy response and even less consideration of its impact on the form of city or urban futures. With ageing as a keystone, can creative practices (architecture, urban design etc) collectively intervene to reimagine the city? The Age Adaptive City is a proposition for cities to embody an alternative system of values for demographic transition that could be traced from low density suburban developments through to dense urban conditions – between architectural and urban resolutions. The research will engage with concepts of multi-generational living, ageing-in-place, as well as a ecology of amenities, infrastructures and proximities leveraging the virtues and connected urbanity of the city, its architecture and palimpsest of interwoven service networks to frame a holistic proposition for its future.

Each week will build on understanding the general principles of programming using Processing, with the later parts of the elective focusing on more creative 2D & 3D applications that are relevant to architecture such as formal generation and deformation. Student must bring their own laptop to class An folio documentating all creative outcomes will also required as part of the final submission.

INVISIBLE ARC HITECTURE FRIDAY 9AM-12PM 100.05.27 DAVID RITTER Beyond visual aesthetics, our dynamic, poetic experience of space feeds off our human sensory perception of an invisible realm of energy flux; heat, light, sound and air movement. As interface between climate and occupant, the building envelope manipulates or moderates this flux to create delight, comfort or utility. Truly sustainable buildings are grounded in context in response to these local climatic forces and a broader consideration of our planetary eco-system; a regenerative cycle of ecology, energy, materials, resources and waste streams. In the first part of this unit you will explore the key concepts of building physics and human interpretation through mapping quanta of environmental flux with measuring instruments and data loggers while simultaneously recording your subjective response. A physical intervention into this realm will be proposed and tested through the use of leading edge environmental analysis and simulation tools (Grasshopper/Ladybug/ Honeybee/Radiance) with a series of in-class tutorials to support your learning and application. The second part of the unit will examine architecture as a macro eco-system and explore the concept of sustainability through study of international best practice benchmarking systems and tools. You will be challenged to make a design proposition for a high-performance building skin and develop the key concepts for a zerocarbon building.

degrees of DIFFICULTY Who has not put down a book in annoyance or tossed one in disgust, to then read it

without putting it down. Reading is not nearly as straightforward as its made out to be, we skip words, repeat sentences, miss pages and search for words in a box full of them, We are compromised by reading, we are just as likely to be emboldened as insulted or diminished. we encounter difficulty; we experience doubt, and on occasion we give up. To look at books as repositories of knowledge says nothing of the experience of reading, after all it is not our knowledge of doubt but the feeling of doubt that causes books to shut and be returned to the shelf. And it is not what we know about anger but anger that causes a book to be thrown aside. Is it ironic then that the feeling of doubt is a prerequisite to understanding the modern text ? . “I am a thinking (conscious) thing, that is, a being who doubts, affirms, denies, knows a few objects, and is ignorant of many- (“cogito” dubito, ergo cogito, ergo sum—res cogitans) Rene Descartes’ 1641 That the very sensation that causes the book to be returned to the shelf is all that we needed to realise its purpose. It followed from Descartes that modern philosophy is the phenomenology of reading, The” I “who doubts; the reader, who mouths the words, is the instrument of knowing that recognises truth. From Descartes truth is not known but experienced; the experience of the reader reading. This project will carefully read a number of primary texts from Philosophy, Aesthetics and Architecture. A reflection on each weeks reading will be the basis of a journal, This will be collated and submitted for assessment at the conclusion of the semester. Text to be exerts from; 1 M Tafuri; Humanism Technical Knowledge and Rhetoric; The debate in renascence Venice. 2 Rousseau; The Social Contract (Foucault commentary) 3Gombrich from Perfernce for the primitive 4 J von Goethe – On German Architecture (commentary by J Pevsner, E H Gombrich and VonMuke and Purdy et el) 5 Alois Riegl; The Modern Cult of Monuments . 6 Wilhelm Worringer; Abstraction and Empathy. 7 Walter Benjamin; On translation.

“What matter who’s speaking, someone said what matter who’s speaking” Samuel Beckett – texts for nothing

Empathy (Einfuhlung): ... How the body in responding to certain stimuli in dream objectifies itself in spatial forms - and with this also the soul - into the form of the object. Robert Vischer On the optical sense of Form a Contribution to Aesthetics Before we as individuals are even conscious of our existence we have been profoundly influenced for a considerable time (since before birth) by our relationship to other individuals who have complicated histories, and are members of a society which has an infinitely more complicated and longer history than they do (and are members of it at a particular time and place in that history); and by the time we are able to make conscious choices we are already making use of categories in a language which has reached a particular degree of development through the lives of countless generations of human beings before us. . . . We are social creatures to the inmost centre of our being. The notion that one can begin anything at all from scratch, free from the past, or unindebted to others, could not conceivably be more wrong -

karl Popper

The plant contemplates water, earth, nitrogen, carbon, chlorides and sulphates, and it contracts them in order to acquire its own concept and fill itself with it (enjoyment). The concept is a habit acquired by contemplating the elements from which we come……p 106 Gilles Delueze and Felix Guattari What is philosophy Paul Valéry wrote in a very remote context. “Artistic observation”, he says in reflections on a woman artist whose work consisted in the silk embroidery of figures, “can attain an almost mystical depth. The objects on which it falls lose their names. Light and shade form very particular systems, present very individual questions which depend upon no knowledge and are derived from no practice, but get their existence and value exclusively from a certain accord of the soul, the eye, and the hand of someone who was born to perceive them and evoke them in his own inner self.”

Aristotle briefly defended them in his fragmentary Poetics. In particular, Aristotle defended the arts from Plato’s charge that they are cognitively useless, trading in mere images of particulars rather than universal truths, by arguing that it is precisely the arts, or at least poetry, that deliver universal truths in a readily graspable form, unlike, for example, history, which deals merely with particular facts (Aristotle, Poetics, chapter 9, 1451a37–1451b10).

Natalie alima + Charles boman Outline REAL TIME ROBOTICS will focus on enabling material, computational and physical agency to mutually interact in the generation of form. Utilising UR robots, students will be exploring techniques in which the robot will respond and operate on the material over an extended period of time. Techniques students will be divided into groups, focusing on computer vision, data informed machine intelligence and real time robotics. Collectively, these groups will be experimenting with computational forms that are in constant dialogue with the physical environment.

Deliverables Catalogue of small scale prototypes which evolve in complexity and detail over time. A final prototype which supports these experiments and showcases a resolved feedback system. Skill requirements Fundamentals of Rhino + Grasshopper. no experience with robotics is required. Students will be provided with computational, robotic and technical support throughout the semester.

The Elective is suited to both Bachelors and Masters level students Assessment: folio of works & a reflective journal There will be a material levy not exceeding $120.00

Architecture is all about MAKING in one form or another. In this elective you will explore MAKING through the productio of physical objects. You will consider ideas about craft & making including conception, design, scale, precision, tolerance, materials and process. MAKING is a complex task and at its best it requires a synthesis of many things. To be excel in MAKING, reflection both during and after creation is essential; reflection will form a key part of the work you produce.

The work produced will range in scale from very small objects, to models and larger scale furniture scale designs .

This is a workshop based elective. We will make use of much of the remarkable array of equipment to be found within the school. At the completion of the elective you will have broadened your skill base substantially both is making by hand and with analogue and digital equipment. You will also have sharpened your sense of materials by resolving a range of tasks given to you. And lastly you will have developed a far more sophisticated approach to questions about and process for MAKING.

ADVANCED FABRICATION RESEARCH ELECTIVE ROLAND SNOOKS This elective requires three student research assistants to undertake research into advanced fabrication processes. These robotic processes will include topics such as robotic ceramic printing and 3d knitted advanced textiles. The research will be undertaken as part of Roland Snooksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research lab and will require students to work in close collaboration with members of the lab and be seriously engaged with making. This research will primarily involve prototyping and will require students who are self-motivated and have good skills in rhino/grasshopper. All the research work will be undertaken within the lab at negotiated times and we will have a regular meeting on wednesday mornings from 9:30am - 10:30am Please apply directly to Roland Snooks at: roland.snooks@rmit.edu.au
